Making a Change for Good: A Guide to Compassionate Self-Discipline, Revised (e)

According to Zen teacher Cheri Huber, we are conditioned to think that if we were better in some way—more how we should be—we would be happy. “I’m not the person I should be and it's my fault.” But, Huber says, no amount of judging and punishment will ever bring about the changes we believe will get us to our goals. The help we are looking for is found in allowing ourselves to be guided by our innate intelligence and generosity, our authentic nature. Simply stated, compassionate self-discipline is found through nothing other than being present. When we are present and aware, we are not engaged in distracting, addictive behaviors. Cultivating the ability to pay attention and focus on what is here in this moment, our experience can be authentic, awake, honest, and joyful. This book includes a guided thirty-day program of daily meditation, contemplation, and journaling.
